Textbook Chapter
Finally, it's out.
The book in which I authored one of the chapters. The publisher sent me a copy of the book the other day right before I left.
It's always gratifying to see your work come to fruition. Except these things sometimes take too long. Not that I have a ton of publication experience, but journal manuscripts take at most 4-6 months to be published from the time they accept it. Textbooks on the other hand...

Textbooks on the other hand...This marks my 2nd textbook chapter. My first was some very dry EBM-type garbage that would put an insomniac to sleep (hah). This project was more appealing to me when I was invited to contribute. I wrote this in the 2nd year of my fellowship, back in 2007. And this is only coming out now, 4 years later. I was beginning to wonder if it would ever be published.
If you're ever looking for a book with scary bedtime stories/pictures, go check it out!
(and no, my dears, I don't get a single cent. The work was done out of professional/academic courtesy)

no offence intended, but isn't the textbook cover quite gross? what's with the tongue??
i don't have any say on what goes on the cover. but that's a picture of tongue and lip neuromas, something you see in a condition called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2
